Conor McGregor is one of the biggest stars in the world of MMA. Known for his brash, zealous confidence and unapologetic swagger, the Irish superstar has overcome seemingly impossible odds on his way to the top. He is also a massive source of inspiration for those who admire his idiosyncratic personality.

'The Notorious' has inspired many during his MMA career through the accomplishments he's had both inside and outside the cage. However, it now appears the Irishman has been inspired by the story of a fan's who he in turn inspired to overcome fear. McGregor said:

"Wow! Shari your story has in turn lit a fire under me, right back! Strength will always find its way to those doing good! I back you in your fight! Stay strong! Stay you! God bless"

Conor McGregor's ascension to superstardom was swift. However, things haven't been going so well for the former double champ of late. McGregor has suffered three losses in his last four UFC fights with his last two defeats coming against No.1-ranked UFC lightweight contender Dustin Poirier.

Since his loss to Poirier earlier this year, McGregor has been very vocal about wanting to face 'The Diamond' for a rare quadrilogy. McGregor has claimed that their rivalry is far from over. However, McGregor has also hinted at eyeing an immediate title shot in his UFC comeback fight in a now-deleted tweet.

ā€œHi lads, here goes... clicks and the like. Your boss and what not. The Mac. Santy Claus. Iā€™m facing whoever the fā€“k has that LW title next. Deal with it. Take off your goggles and mark the trilogy ā€˜unfinished.ā€™ Deal with that too. The rest mentioned, after this. Deal. With. It.ā€
